i think your pounding a square peg in a round hole on this one 

you found a pistol that will take a LDC but there would no way to mount anything on the slide 

now you could get a under frame mount and mount it on that weaver-picatinny mount but there will be a problem

you will not know if the top rail will be centered over the slide 

oh i guess being off center might work but not for me 

something like this

but then it would have to clear the slide side 

so square peg in round hole

Here is a mounting plate from ADE that should fit the rear sight notch on a Sig 226.

Look also at their red dot sights.  Best price on red dots I have seen.

I don't know anything about that gun, but looking at the picture, I think you might have better luck with a weaver mount laser.  My limited experience with laser sights has taught me that they can be quite accurate, but are VERY range-specific; IE the light goes in a straight line, but the pellet travels in a trajectory.

Like I said, if you take the time to dial in a laser sight at a specific distance, the pellet will go where the dot shines.  If you shoot at a fixed range, lasers can be really fun.  They are ideal for basement shooting.
